Re: [orca-list] orca and xboard

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I noticed when playing machine against machine, two mengine mode or similar it's called, the page up and page 
down keys do not work, i.e. one can't 
scroll through moves in the game in many cases. 
Sometimes after a while this feature starts to work, and once it worked from the start of the game, but in 
many cases this never works at all.
This is not a show stopper, but I've been playing engine against engine to see which engines are stronger and 
which are weaker.
When I've played a few more games this way I'll report so that others can be more informed when deciding 
which chess engines to install, and or which to 
use depending on their chess skills.

I hope I'm not posting something that was already mentioned in a message I missed.
